Well, that marks possibly the first time ever that I have clicked on a Indycar link

Georges looks different

 

[ChrisMWilliams]

LOL. Sorry about that. That was show prep for Fanatics tonight. I corrected the link.

This is inception.

Is this real life?

Good stuff. Boy, am I going to miss that kid. Even though he was a starter and a star from almost the time he set foot on campus, it doesn't seem like we had him for 4 years. (Also, I'm so glad we have Monte and Naz back because it would be tough not having them back as well.)

 

[ForbinsAscynt]

Does someone have a list of teams that Georges worked out for? I saw the thread regarding the bulls but didn't follow it. Probably would have been the first question I would've asked him.

Georges is really starting to master that professional canned answer thing they teach you, huh?

I love the guy. My all time favorite Cyclone. But man, outside of one or two, those were completely boring and canned answers. I get it, and I don't fault him at all for answering that way. He doesn't want anything printed that could potentially make him look bad before the draft. And that's totally fine. But man, what boring answers. So different than what we're used to with Georges.

 

[Cycsk]

Seriously, did Niang take the bus to the Sukup Center?

 

[CycloneWanderer]

Dangit. Why'd you have to write this? It just really hit me that Georges won't be playing for us next year. Now I'm sad

 

[carvers4math]

I was really hoping Georges and Naz would walk graduation, but I suppose they would have to stop the ceremony a while before they could read the next names, which were averaging a name every two seconds.

To add to his mystique, did learn that his middle name is Maguette at graduation.

Yeah - my thoughts exactly. I'm always excited to see/read interviews with Georges because of his personality, but this one was a disappointment. Not that he said anything bad - just didn't have any pop or humor.

Maybe so. But Rob Gray used the word "bedraggled," and that alone makes the article worth reading.
